Generate cheap, green electricity from sunlight

Solar panel electricity systems, also known as solar photovoltaics (PV), capture the sun's energy using photovoltaic cells. These cells don't need direct sunlight to work – they can still generate some electricity on a cloudy day. The cells convert the sunlight into electricity, which can be used to run household appliances and lighting.

The benefits of solar electricity

Cut your electricity bills. Sunlight is free, so once you've paid for the initial installation, your electricity costs will be reduced.

Get paid for the electricity you generate.

Sell electricity back to the grid. If your system is producing more electricity than you need, you can sell the surplus back to the grid.

Cut your carbon footprint. Solar electricity is green renewable energy and doesn't release any harmful carbon dioxide or other pollutants. A typical home solar PV system could save over a tonne of carbon dioxide per year – that's more than 30 tonnes over its lifetime.
